Creative bundle review (case plus Loar 170 mandolin)

13.06.2015

The case is solid and good value for the money, but the rear catch was sticking, and I managed to cut my finger on it. The application of a bit of graphite grease (to the case, not the finger) solved the problem, though.

The case was part of a "Creative Bundle" and the bundle included a Loar 170 mandolin. The set-up on this was truly dreadful! The neck had no relief on it at all, and the action is way too low. Fortunately, I am capable of doing my own set up, and the basic body of the mandolin is fine, so I can sort it out. I will have to replace the bridge, though, as it needs a higher bridge. Anybody who is not skilled at doing set-up work should beware this mandolin. I notice that it is no longer in the Thomann product list, so maybe they have had a few of these returned.
